Abstract: Methods of introducing precursors through a segmented showerhead are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method of introducing precursors through a segmented showerhead having a plurality of gas delivery portions that are fluidly isolated includes heating a first gas delivery portion to a first temperature; and simultaneously heating a second gas delivery portion to a second temperature different than the first temperature, wherein each of the first and second gas delivery portions (i) have a wedge shaped body that defines a plenum, (ii) are coplanar, and (iii) together form a showerhead having a circular shape.
